In no particular order..... 40 37 55 24 25 45/46 47 33 08 All seen "from new" except the 08's which seemed to have always been there....
In no particular order, as they say on a certain programme (something to do with dancing, whatever that is?) A1 A2 A3 A4 B1 Black 5 Fairburn Tank...
Intriguing indeed. Rather than allowing something to be fastened on, I wonder if it was a local improvised means of enabling something to be poked...
In the photos of A4's from Neil Dimmer elsewhere on NP there is one of 60004 William Whitelaw with what looks like the same hole. It would seem...
I would tend to agree with the slide spot suggestion, (unless a relative of Robert Louis Stevenson had been at work administering the "black spot"...
Excellent photos thanks for sharing. When we Bradford lads began spotting (1958) the LYR locos were becoming scarcer but still saw some use. Low...
Super shots, very evocative of times gone by, thankyou for sharing. Took this old geezer right back 60 years to caravan holidays besides the North...
Thanks. I too loved the Pacifics but had to travel (Leeds/Doncaster etc) to see them as a rule, apart from occasional engineering works...
I have the same DVD which is excellent but contains much footage of the last years of steam with grimy run down locos. I certainly recall those...
Excellent. The Effingham junction one reminds me so much of 61306 and many of her sisters flogging their way up from Bradford Exchange to...
Sheer "folly" eh? To be serious for a change, these things appear all over Yorkshire and Lancashire, not sure about elsewhere. Erected by the...
It's all good stuff no matter how far away from topic we wander. I too must look for a Bradshaw. Interesting that in those days a small town like...
I suspect the Keighley train was perhaps a portion of an evening Bradford-Paignton train. Presumably joined up at Leeds?
I don't remember any through Leeds itself although of course there were many from the West Country and/or South Coast which went further North by...
Also "The Devonian" as far as Bristol, turn and turn about with Barrow Road Jubilees IIRC. The memory of the long gone "Drake" at Apperley...
Thanks very much. I would settle for any other Jubilee in green besides Bahamas, as that is how I remember them. (I do like the red and black,...
Am loving the "banter", and also wanted to add my congrats and thanks for the superb photos/videos. Does anyone know how long "Alberta" will exist...
No idea what it is but at 30 metres long it's some loco!
Came across this whilst idly browsing. Looks to be diesel or at best a steam "drag". Any clues? Anything to do with the Wensleydale Railway's...
2 very nice looking green liveried Class 47's stabled at York loco sidings today (24th Oct). anyone any idea what they are doing there, or where...
